Eddy Merckx is widely regarded as the greatest professional cyclist in history. Born in Belgium in 1945, Merckx dominated the sport during the 1960s and 1970s with an unmatched hunger for victory, earning him the nickname "The Cannibal."
Over his career, Merckx amassed an extraordinary 525 professional wins, including:
5 Tour de France victories (1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1974)
5 Giro d’Italia wins
1 Vuelta a España win
A record 11 Grand Tour overall victories
3 World Championship titles (1967, 1971, 1974)
Multiple wins in all five Monument classics (including 7 Milan–San Remo victories)
Merckx was known for his dominance in every type of race — from brutal mountain stages to time trials to one-day classics. He also broke the Hour Record in 1972, further cementing his legendary status.
His relentless drive and all-around excellence redefined what it meant to be a cyclist, and his influence still shapes the sport today. Eddy Merckx remains the benchmark by which all other champions are measured.
